While the Wolves are very badly embarked in this first round of playoffs against the Nuggets, some fans did not hesitate to criticize Rudy Gobert. The pivot still has things to prove in Minnesota, so a departure in the coming years remains a plausible option. Bleacher Report has precisely imagined a departure towards a competitor in the West…
Fully engaged with the Wolves against the Nuggets, Rudy Gobert will have a lot of work to do in the next few games to contain Nikola Jokic, at the risk of going on vacation earlier than expected. Minnesota is already down 0-2 in this series, which means there is no room for error going forward. In case of disappointment, some supporters will obviously ask questions about Rudy’s future.
A major trade in the West for Rudy Gobert
Always as valuable in defense, Gobert is not yet unanimous with his contribution on the floor. For a lot of people, there are other franchises better able to use his talent… like the Mavericks. We know that Dallas needs a real position 5 to cross a course, that’s why Bleacher Report imagined a trade alongside Luka Doncic to restart it.
Bleacher Report trade idea:
Dallas Mavericks receive: Rudy Gobert
Minnesota Timberwolves receive: Davis Bertans, Tim Hardaway Jr, 2027 first round pick (top-three-protected)

Trade idea for Bleacher Report:
Dallas Mavericks host: Rudy Gobert
Minnesota Timberwolves receive: Davis Bertans, Tim Hardaway Jr, 2027 first round (top 3 protected)
The biggest problem with this trade is probably the low counterparty released by Dallas, knowing that the Wolves rained down the trumps to acquire Rudy. A year later, it is very unlikely to see Minnesota give up their French, especially for this price…
Knowing that Dallas needs a top pivot, especially since Christian Wood should not return, the transaction is advantageous for the Texas franchise. Only problem ? Rudy’s contract, which is widely debated among supporters.
Done and done

With Rudy contract??? Hell nah it’s Minnesota that’s sending the first

With Rudy’s contract??? Oh no it’s Minnesota that sends the first round
Rudy Gobert at the Mavs? The fit seems ideal given the point of a position 5 in Dallas, but the Frenchman’s contract continues to be debated. Whatever happens, Minnesota is unlikely to turn the page after a campaign. On the other hand, it is to be reviewed in a few years…
